BNSS Section 483 | Bail Granted Under SC/ST Act When Investigation Concludes and Co-Accused Are on Bail, No Flight Risk : Rajasthan HC
The Rajasthan High Court has ruled that completion of investigation under the SC/ST Act, combined with the absence of flight risk and the fact that co-accused are already on bail, justifies release even in non-bailable offences. This clarifies that procedural finality and equitable treatment of co-accused can override the presumption of detention under the Act, offering critical relief to accused in prolonged pre-trial custody.
